1 out of 3…
Those are the odds of you being born in a country where you would not have a good enough internet connection to watch this video in 240p.

If you are age 44 and above, you have currently lived a longer life than most humans have throughout history.

and if you are under the age of about 15, you are apart of a generation who’s entire life is archived on the internet and stored on servers as 1’s and 0’s.

Society has come a long way in the past 100 years or so…especially considering that exactly one century ago, the newest high-end innovation of society was the toaster, which cost roughly $97 USD after adjusting for inflation.

…but are we lucky to be living in this time period? …”Are you a lucky person?” and the way you answer that question might have a much bigger effect on your life than you may think.

When you think of luck, you might think of something like rolling dice. If you were to roll a 7 at the perfect moment when you needed to roll a 7, you might consider that to be luck. But based on probability theory you actually had a 16% chance of rolling a 7. Something that would seem luckier and a lot more improbable is rolling a 7, 7 times in a row. The chances of that happening are roughly 0.00035722449%. Meaning that if you were run an experiment where you rolled a pair of dice 7 times in a row, then repeated that over and over again. You would have to run the experiment roughly 300 000 times before you rolled a 7, 7 times in a row. And by the way, this happened in real life a few weeks ago when my girlfriend massacred me in settlers of catan. And I am still bitter about it.

But is this really luck? Theoretically, If you were to calculate the properties and position of the dice, the air resistance and the tables properties at the exact moment that you release the dice, than you could predict the outcome of the dice roll with 100% accuracy before the dice hit the table. Because at the end of the day, rolling dice is just a cause and effect physics experiment.

And this cause and effect relationship part of something that is called determinism. You see determinism is the view that everything that has ever happened in the universe is caused by a previous event. So the dice landing as a 7 was caused by you throwing the dice. You throwing the dice at the exact moment you did was caused by your motor neurons firing, telling you fingers to move. Your motor neurons fired because the neurons in your pre-frontal cortex chose to throw the dice instead of doing something else. And the neurons in your pre-frontal cortex made this choice because of the previous memories that have been stored in the hippocampus.

so the point of determinism of Hard Determinism in this case is saying is that every single movement, choice, and thought you have ever had is actually pre-determined by the events that came before it. So the reason that you are watching this video is not because you chose to watch it, but more because all of the events in your life previous to watching this video, have led you towards watching this video.

And if you were to take the belief of determinism all the way back, to before the earth was formed, to before the birth of stars, all the way back to the beginning of the big bang… Then we get an interesting thought. If we were to calculate all of the energy, matter, and spacetime properties of our universe….at the moment of the big bang…than we could theoretically have predicted every single event that would happen throughout the history of the universe.

But this also means that you are lucky. Think about this. about 13.8 billion years ago, the universe began expanding and creating things like hydrogen, helium, and lithium that and began spreading them throughout the entire universe. Then about a million years later, stars and galaxies began to form. Then these stars began exploding into supernova and then being created over and over again up until 9 billion years later when one supernova explosion ended up creating the earth. Then, the first single cell form of life arose on the earth, which later became multicellular life, which became complex life, and after a few billion years of global disasters, wars, and famine, you were finally created because a sperm cell hit and egg at the exact microsecond that it did.
